What is their pretend projected launch date for this?

When all the experts (outside of Mars One) are saying we're 20 years away minimum (just like with sustainable fusion and personal jet packs), who would sign up today?



Is there a serious expectation that personal jet packs are going to be worn by anyone but particular military personnel and particular field technicians repairing infrastructure?


Maybe for recreational use?

My point was, as a potential Mars crew member, who is going to commit to a minimum 20 year flight date without all ready being in a space program?
